[GIT PULL] x86/vdso fix for v3.15-rc3

[H. Peter Anvin]

Hi Linus,

This is a single build fix for building with gold as opposed to GNU
ld.  It got queued up separately and was expected to be pushed during
the merge window, but it got left behind.

The following changes since commit 37c975545ec63320789962bf307f000f08fabd48:

  x86, vdso: Fix the symbol versions on the 32-bit vDSO (2014-03-30 10:08:38 -0700)

are available in the git repository at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-vdso-for-linus

  x86, vdso: Make the vdso linker script compatible with Gold (2014-04-03 12:03:59 -0700)
